CALGARY, Alta. – Hockey Canada announced Thursday that 17 goaltenders have been invited to attend this

In total, the invitees include five players with experience on Canada’s National Women’s Team (Kessler,
Labonté, Lacasse, Szabados and St-Pierre), seven players with experience on Canada’s National Women’s
Under-22/Development Team (Douville, Howe, Kessler, Labonté, Lacasse, Szabados and St-Pierre), as well as six players with experience on Canada’s National Women’s Under-18 Team (Chuli, Desbiens, Douville, Howe, MacDonald and Maschmeyer).
